Israel and the Law of Karma

Justice is the foundation upon which a society rests and functions
cohesively. You mess that, you get messed. I sincerely pray that the good
people of Israel ponder over the future of next generation of Israelis, their
security, goodwill and happiness and act accordingly.It is not Jews, Judaism or Israel; it is the evil actions of a few in the
Israeli Government that will invoke the nature’s Law of Karma, i.e., for every
wrong you do, you pay for it in terms of insecurity, anguish and abnormal life,
and for every good you do, you get rewarded in terms of security, peace,
goodwill and happiness.

Native American Chief Seattle said it perfectly; "All things are connected. Whatever befalls the earth, befalls the sons of the earth. Man did not weave the web of life; he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the webs, he does it to himself. "

Anti-Semitism will increase not because of Judaism or Jews, but because of
the injustice done to fellow beings. As the world (161 of 166 Members of the
United Nations) sees the gross human rights violations, they look to Jews as
wrong doers instead of seeing the evil policies of the few in Israeli
government. If the world Jewry does not stop these, shamefully the travels to
those 161 nations will not be comfortable.

It saddens me to see the policy makers of Israel throw justice out the
window for the sake security – a wrong approach. No individual or nation will
be secure if they are unjust to fellow beings. I pray that the good people see
this deficiency and fix it. It’s never too late to make correction and live a
secure life.

The Jewish people may not want to see the truth, and continue to live in apprehensions continually missing chances to turn things around. The increase in Antisemitism is a product of Israeli disrespect to to the resolution of 161 Nations, and only 5 nations oppose - the 161 Nations have every reason to be pissed off for being disrespectful to their wisdom. This is the history at the United Nations since 1948 - 96% of nations on one side, 4% on Israel's side with a few exceptions when Israel's existence was threatened. It is an embarrassment to see a few Israeli leaders scheming wars against Iran, Iraq and others, and buying short-sighted alliances with other nations to live in false security. The good will is earned through common people in Argentina, France, UK, US or elsewhere to make life safer to travel anywhere, and to live without fear.

The misinterpreted verses in Bible and Torah ( of course Quran and other holy books too) have caused the right wingers to justify killings of Palestinians and usurping their land, and this will not go too far. Deep down humans are made to be just and that is where they will gravitate towards.

I care for the people of Israel and Palestine and I speak out, I don't care if the short-sighted men and women jump at me. It is this silencing that has caused Israel to drift away from doing the right thing; justice to the Palestinians and earn the long term security for Israelis.It is painful to see these grave mistaken policies of Israel.

My slogan is justice to Palestinians and security to Israelis, one will not happen without the other. As a Muslim I would like to see every one of God’s creation live in dignity, peace, goodwill and harmony, with prejudice towards none and without the fear of the other. Amen!

Israel Palestine Dialogue

Threat

The real threat to the peace process between Israel and Palestine stems from their inability to look at their own policies critically. It is time to quit blaming and start finding solutions. Damn it, the leaders ought to be ashamed of themselves if they cannot look in the eyes of Palestinian and Israeli Children and committ to give them a better life.

The leaders need to learn that, they cannot have peace and security when they keep threatening others around them, period.

Israel

Jews have a need to be understood and be acknowledged of their eternal security needs, not the military, but mental security where they can put their guards down and live their life in peace.

Palestine

Palestinians have a need to be understood. They have suffered immeasurably, no human should be stripped of his or her hope and dignity; hope to have a family, work and own a house and call a place their homeland.

U.S.A.

Our Presidents need to seriously look at what works. They need to have the vision for peace. They must understand that it may be going against the general opinion and must take bold steps and produce peace for the people of Israel and Palestine. It will save lives and brings peace to them and takes a burden off us.

We must protect Israel, our ally; however, if that protection is based on injustice to either Palestinians or the Jews, our integrity becomes questionable. We need to be above reproach and seek justice for one and all.

Mighty empires can crush the weak for a short term; in the long run every one goes down the tube. We cannot rob anyone and live with a good conscience.

The Words

Words are the most powerful weapons of mass destruction. Just about every war and every conflict in the history of mankind has started out with a choice of wrong words.

There was a time when diplomats were trained in the art of speaking and the art of negotiating. Their whole purpose was to bring results through a dialogue.

Power makes one arrogant, and that arrogance translates into treatement of others in less than equal fashion, the mightier may bully and make their way for the moment, but in the back of their minds, they know they have to live with caution every minute of their life, as the oppresse will pounce in the moment of vulnerability.

Peace is attainable and we should not give up on it. The Jews deserve security and the Palestinians the hope. Both deserve peace and security.

"Peace hinges on hopes for the Palestinians and security for the Israelis, anything short of justice will not produce sustainable peace" - If Jews and Muslims can take the position that we cannot have peace when others around us don't and work on first removing bias and stereotyping from their own minds, conflicts will fade and solutions emerge.

VOTE YES

Refresh

Sixty years have gone by and yet we do not have hope for the Palestinians and Peace for the Israelis. Is it because we have been coerced to listen to the Hawks, who revel in death and destruction of the other?

The Israelis, the Palestinians and the Americans must insist on electing the leaders who will achieve peace without rejoicing the other's destruction. Any one who talks war must be asked to step down at once. The Billions we give them must be tied to their ability to bring peace.
